+1 Wherenext. It doesn’t end on the Wards for them either, full strip and shower after getting home, extra precautions for washing uniforms, etc..... 

I dread seeing some of tomorrow’s headlines.

I think a lot of folks, me included, take the NHS for granted, in normal times. Whilst it’s hard to comprehend what they have to go through at this time, I think they’ve done an outstanding job, putting themselves at risk to help others. Perhaps naively, I’d like to see a day of recognition/celebration for all they have done to get us through this. It ain’t over yet, but one day...

The way I see it...

If enough folks exercise their right to not have the jab, and we all go back to ‘normal’ after the vaccination program, the virus will rip through the unvaccinated, resulting in more deaths>restrictions>lockdowns. What then for the freedoms of the vaccinated?

 The Vaccinated will probably be forcibly conscripted as Gravediggers or some such , , , , , , , ,

We have family and good friends working in NHS, we know what they are going through. Above and beyond what anyone should have to do, outside of being at War. Many will have PTSE by the end of this, day’s, week’s, months, spent dealing with end of life, unrelenting grief, incredible stress levels, even illness itself. Takes its toll, on families as well. No reward could be enough really.

Freddy, there was a letter that I saw somewhere which suggested that those that can afford it might wish to pay a modest amount, say £10, to have the vaccine jab. If that was brought into effect then how about distributing the funds in some way towards the staff. I'm sure better minds than mine would be able to work out logistics, iron out pitfalls etc.

Absolutely no compulsion and no pressure on anyone to pay, just a voluntary donation.

If a voluntary option was put in place, I’d be all for it 👍
